Jubilee NYC Christmas Concert Praises the True Reason for the Season

jubilee nyc

On December, 19 at 7pm, Jubilee Chorus and String Orchestra held their Christmas Concert at German Evangelical Lutheran St. Paul's Church (315 West 22nd Street). 24 Jubilee NYC members performed for their Christmas concert. The rehearsal atmosphere was graceful and their hearts were united and gathered together to praise God.

To begin, the Jubilee String Orchestra performed P. Tchaikovsky's (1840-1893) Nutcracker Suite "Overture Miniature," "March," "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy," "Trepak, Arabian Dance," and "Waltz of the Flowers."

After the orchestra performance, Jubilee Chorus performed "Carol of the Bells," "Amen - Go Tell It on The Mountains," "The Christmas Song," and "Joyful Joyful."

The last performance was a collaboration as Jubilee Chorus and Orchestra performed "Be Still My Soul," "It is Well with My Soul," "Who Would Imagine a King," "Why We Sing," and "Joy To the World". The String Orchestra parts were arranged by Jubilee Chorus composers, Bill Heigen, and pianist, Grace Sun.

Members of the audience shared, "The beauty of the music prompted me to thank God for His beauty and power. Only God can create such marvelous music. May these songs of praise bring glory and comfort to God."

"I was thankful to God that He could use the Jubilee members so gracefully. I wanted to have the program so I could find the songs and listen to them and meditate on some of them. I'm sure Jubilee will create live concert recordings that many people will want to get to remind them of the grace they received."

"In the midst of an atmosphere where Christmas is becoming like any other holidays and losing its true meaning, it was a very joyful night with people who gathered to greet the night of Jesus's birth with songs of praise. I pray that all the music ministries in Jubilee World and NYC, the biggest city and most secular city in the world, may continue to grow and fill this city with praises."

The Jubilee General Manager reflected, "I keep prayed that God pours out all of His grace to the people who attended the concert. We don't realize how much our praises are important and precious to God. God blessed the concert. When I manage concerts there are difficulties, however I learn many things and I believe God is using and leading Jubilee strongly. I appreciate out Jubilee Musicians and recognize that some members have testified that they have misunderstood God and been hurt from Christians, but when they sing in Jubilee they can open their hearts without fear. Praise God! Please pray for Jubilee NYC. Jubilee NYC needs your prayers and support to extend its mission, healing God's people and glorifying God."

The Jubilee NYC holds a meeting for the coming 2016 mission plan with directors, staffs, and interns. Please pray for Jubilee NYC's Mission to spread the gospel and God's love through music with new hope.

God’s Gift and Our Response: The Cycle of Grace, Gratitude, and Worship

The Christian faith is marked by a unique and profound rhythm: grace, gratitude, and praise. At the core of this faith lies the unmerited favor of God, a gift so freely given that it defies human understanding. Scripture declares, "For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace" (John 1:16, ESV). This

Called to Make Disciples in All Nations

In His Great Commission, Jesus commands us to make disciples-not simply to inspire a single moment of conversion but to lead others into a committed, lifelong walk with Him. As Reformed theologian R.C. Sproul wisely reminds us, "Jesus' lordship encompasses all of life."

The Power Within: Embracing the Holy Spirit's Work

In the journey of faith, we often find ourselves eagerly seeking to fulfill the Great Commission, to spread the gospel to the ends of the earth, just as Jesus commanded his disciples. However, in our fervor to carry out this mission, let us not overlook a crucial commandment given by our Lord Himself.
